I want to say to all the kitty parents that you aren't alone. In old Celtic times, the Green Man Held the Flaming Branch aloft in the Samhain (Halloween) Ritual to mark where the old year passes by. Afterward, a feast would be laid on the ground, a picnic for those of this world, and those who had 'crossed'. It was a memorial feast, and a declaration of unity that all the worlds were connected.

As a Cat, I know these things, and accept them. As a Human, I know for many it may be difficult. But on an earthly level, know you aren't alone. There are so many here to comfort and cheer you, or simply sit with you, purr with you, and in my case, well, drink and eat with you. (Got any chicken?)

My mommy and daddy held aloft a few glasses last night and toasted those who had made that crossing. My mom's eyes still leak, but she smiles for all the wonderful memories she has, and all the good friends we have made here. I am thankful for the ravishing beauty of Marrikesh, the celtic loviliness of Hazel Lucy, the Sweetness of Taffy, and the Guidance and fellow feeling of Hermie. I know that as my parents do, their parents have been so much a part of them. I salute them. I purrrrt to them and tell them....you are our partners, our parents, our friends and we show you the way...and you are always, always appreciated and loved.

"Since it fell into my lot
that I should rise,and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Goodnight and joy be to you all!"

I'd send you a present, but Mommy has no more zealies just now....but you are so precous!!! So adorable!!! I'd love to come cuddle in that bed with you once I'm woken up here, I'm laying on the back of the loveseat, watching out the window and napping....it must have been the Guiness! Hey, got any chicken?
